Jim Roman has a long history of always putting Washington County first, hosting many charity events.
After a successful ‘Toys for Tots’ campaign that filled a U-haul truck and provided toys for kids in Washington County, James Roman officially announced his plan to become Washington County’s next Register of Wills.
Roman has worked as a paralegal for seven years with some of the largest law firms in the world and earned a Bachelor of Arts in Legal Studies from the University of Pittsburgh. He worked with the Fayette County Register of Wills office on Veterans’ records and has experience working with the Chief Judge in Westmoreland County and the City of Pittsburgh City Council.
Roman believes it is time to update the Register of Wills office to the 21st Century. The technology is outdated, payment methods can be made easier and more affordable, and all levels of customer service can be improved to better serve the people of Washington County
He is an advocate for term-limits and said he would not exceed two terms as Register of Wills. He believes that every citizen of Washington County should have an opportunity to run for office, and that offices should not be held by elected officials for 20, 30 or even 40 years.
Roman has three children in the Canon-McMillan School District and he is dedicated to making Washington County the best it can be.
